Interactions

Two Hybrid

Two Hybrid interaction with MTF2
The mitochondrial matrix protein Mtf2p/Nam1p interacts with the amino-terminal domain of mtRNA polymerase (Rpo41p) to couple post-transcriptional events to transcription during mitochondrial gene expression. [3] [4]


Protein Details

Protein Function/Process

The amino-terminal extension of Rpo41p contains a functional domain that is dispensible for transcription initiation, but is required for mtDNA stability, suggesting that additional activities are coupled to transcription during mitochondrial gene expression and/or mtDNA replication. [5] [6]
